I want to put an oil temp gauge in my car, i've heard that you can buy an adaptor so you can put the sensor where the sump plug goes. Is this true? If so, where do you get them from?

Its on a ZVH conversion in a S2, I'v got the sensor i just need some way of fitting it in the sump plug hole as the sensor is to small to just swap for the plug!?

i got one from burton power, 14mm sump plug with 1/4 npt tapped hole that the sensor fits in.

the actual finish on it was fucking shit, looked like it was turned with a blunt tool etc.

5 mins with some sandpaper tho and it was ok.

was made by revotec iirc.

oh right. this wont fit a zvh. never mind.

good luck with the hunt for one mate.
